Big life saving surgery

My "grand daughter", Elise, was in a really bad condition. She had no more organs functioning.
Hubby is a brilliant surgeon, so he opened her with a steady hand and fixed her organs.
While she was recovering she also had a bath and is now in a better condition than ever.


My daugther was quite worried about her baby, but she stayed calm.
The baby's uncles, however, wondered if the surgeon could turn the baby into a battle droid...

Summer party

The boys were invited to their teacher's house to a summer party today.
What a blast! To see her place, to have fun with all their class mates and to swim in her pool.

Before they could all go in,  they needed some instructions. What part of the pool was to deep for the ones that can't swim, no running on the concrete, no pushing and so on.

It was great fun diving from the diving rock. But hello - stretch out!

Pools in the area

The thought of everyone having admission to at least one pool was very strange to me before I came here.
After living here for a while it becomes normal. The questions usually are Where do we go? Whoes pool are we using this week?
Fridays we often bring some friends home or go to some friends place. We've been swimming in lots of the pools around here.
But we do have a few favorites. Deep pools with diving boards or the beautiful Woodbridge lakes are among them.

Yesterday it was father's day here. We went to see one of the boys' friend and his family - and their pool ;-)   - one of the Woodbridge pools!

These days are so busy!

I never get to come home between taking the kids to schools around the area and picking them up again.
There are som plays here and some volunteering there every day.
But it is funny too! :)

My little daughter is so cute

Yesterday hubby came home and told me that Princess thought he was 45 years old. (I was a little surprised, because I really thought she knew his age.) I asked her whether she thinks he looks old or young, and she answered:
"He looks pretty old - just like Grandpa!"

I couldn't help laughing. My 37 year old love isn't that old looking!

I promised you some proofs

Some proofs of some of my projects the I've been working on lately.

Here are the sweaters I knitted for the kids. I know they look uneven in front - it's just the way thay are wearing them.
They still need a couple of buttons, but the kiddoes are so happy to have these Jedi-costumes!
of course I never thought of tem as Jedi costumes, but for big Star Wars fans, everything can turn out to be Star Wars equipment.

This is where we live
